Thank you guys for looking into this :)

I'd very much like to use a WebKit browser on a musl system (Alpine Linux).

Now that bug 208223 is resolved, is detecting mucl the only thing left to do?

For what my razor-thin understanding is worth, musl is a strict C library compared to the GNU C library with its own additions? If this is the case, could the condition case not be reversed, i.e. if GNU C additions are available, target those, otherwise, target strict C?
